Iterative. Fines, court dates, warrants when it comes down to it. Sentencing enhancements for crimes.

I wouldn’t send authorities into homes, no.

Fines, court dates and warrants do not take firearms out of the hands of people that would rather die than give them up. You’d eventually need SWAT tasks force level initiatives to go and kill resistors eventually; I find that highly unethical.

And there it is…? Would you have preferred I started off with that statement in the future?

The point is that you cannot effectively remove guns in the US, without substantially increasing loss of life, and that’s why it doesn’t happen.
